2025-05-28T07:39:34Z urn:hdl:10259/10507 Transition Metal-Free Synthesis of Halobenzo[b]furans from O-Aryl Carbamates via o-Lithiation Reactions Feberero García, Claudia Virumbrales Ortiz, Cintia Sedano Labrador, Carlos Renedo Peña, Lorena Suárez Pantiga, Samuel Sanz Díez, Roberto o-Lithiation Carbamates Alkynylation Benzo[b]furans Cyclization A straightforward and transition metal-free one-pot protocol to synthesize halobenzo[b]furans has been developed employing simple and easily available starting materials such as O-aryl carbamates and alkynylsulfones. The fine-tuning of the different steps involved was key to achieving a successful one-pot procedure. Initially, a directed ortho-lithiation process, which uses the carbamate as the directed metalation group, was crucial in providing access to O-2-alkynylaryl N,N-diethyl carbamates by a direct alkynylation of the o-lithiated carbamate, with arylsulfonylalkynes as electrophilic reagents. Cyclization of the generated o-alkynylaryl carbamates was successfully accomplished through a strategy involving in situ carbamate alkaline hydrolysis under conventional heating or microwave irradiation, coupled with a subsequent heterocyclization step delivering the desired benzo[b]furans. A wide variety of new halobenzo[b]furans has been synthesized and their utility has been demonstrated by their further transformation. 2025-05-28T07:39:34Z 2025-05-28T07:39:34Z 2022-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article http://hdl.handle.net/10259/10507 10.3390/molecules27020525 1420-3049 eng Molecules. 2022, V. 27, n. 2, p. 525-545 https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules27020525 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Atribución 4.0 Internacional MDPI
